I organised a three day break for a group of eleven female friends and availed of the Golden Years package. It was a great success. The welcomes at reception were friendly and efficient and our rooms were all delightful, with views of Kilkenny Castle. The facilities and location of the hotel were very suitable for us as the city centre... more

These nicely appointed rooms were wonderful for a family use to staying at luxury hotels. They had several rooms with sleeping arrangements to accomodate families of five or more (twin beds and full beds). The rooms were comfortable, the en suite tea service and pant valet were nice perks, and you can't go wrong for the price. Best location in... more

We were there for five nights, including a weekend. On both Friday and Saturday there were Weddings which were VERY loud until about 2 in the morning. Management posted a notice about the potential for noise with the caveat that they would attempt to move you to a new room if you were bothered. However when asked, no rooms were... more

We had three days here with breakfast and dinner each day. We got a special deal for 'oldies' - It was good value and we enjoyed our stay. One of the receptionists could have been a bit more friendly but she was business-like. The dining room staff were great and our room was fine with a free upgrade to a... more

I loved most of my three-day stay in the River Court. It's a smart hotel, all the amenities, plus some nice extra touches, and a mostly-attentive staff. Its location is perfect if you want to explore the city - it's located in the center and you can walk anywhere else from the hotel. The only problems I had here were... more

Hotel was nice after they finally found my reservation after demanding my "voucher" from Expedia stating it was required for the stay. Expedia does not issue vouchers of course. This is an event hotel and there were people literally screaming in the bar area all night and drunken people returning to their rooms, very loudly talking and slamming doors. Numerous... more

Stayed there only one night, we had the Bed and Breakfast rate which made it very affordable for us. The terrace overlooking the river and castle can't be beat. The room was clean and extremely comfortable. We were sorry that we were staying for only one night. The breakfast was buffet with the typical choices. The food was very good.... more

My Daughters gave me a voucher for my 60th Birthday for the River Court Hotel in Kilkenny. When we arrived the staff were so friendly and helpful. When we got to our room we had been given The Earl Of Ormond Suite.[at no extra cost]. We were on the Golden Oldies Package.We were so impressed with it. The Food in... more

This hotel proved to be one of my surprises during our Ireland tour this August. Its location is excellent, a few steps from town center. It has very clean rooms (although somehow old-fashioned), excellent room service, a nice and big breakfast room by the river, a very rich breakfast and, most of all, a very friendly and highly efficient staff.... more
